Subject: Re: Ubuntu 18.04 - kzalloc() can't allocate memory
We sometimes do, depends on the use case. In general, I've in plans to rewrite
some of the *_JUMP_LABEL support logic. This will change memory handling logic
and significantly reduce memory footprint.
Unfortunately, I didn't have time to do it yet, because there is always
something more important to do (like research potential ideas of protecting VFS
layer which you leverage to bypass LKRG ;-))
Thanks,
Adam
